On Smackdown after Rusev beat Kalisto, Titus O'Neil came out and confronted Rusev.

Hopefully that means they aren't feeding Rusev to Cena and actually giving Rusev a push.

Careful what you wish for. There's still an open spot in the MITB ladder match. Would you rather Cena go back into a program with Rusev or win MITB and take that spot from someone?

Last spot will go to Orton or Wyatt, imo.

God, I hope not. Let the US Title and the IC Title be exclusive to their own shows (don't really care which title is exclusive to which show). The WWE World Heavyweight Champion should not be bound to any one show. That keeps the top dog free to float back and forth and create compelling title feuds wherever.


Agree. I prefer 1 champ / both shows.

Apparently the rumor is that both brands will have their own World Heavyweight Championship. The IC, Women's Championship and US titles will be exclusive to whichever show the holder is on and the tag titles will be on both shows. Not likely now but there has been talk of a second Women's Championship belt being introduced eventually, most likely Tag Titles. Both shows will be on each ppv with their own announce team. The Monday Night Raws after major PPVs will feature both shows.

Not a fan of the Women's Championship being exclusive but I like the sounds of everything else. I wonder if the WWE will reintroduce the Cruiserweight Championship with the brand split and tournament?

Womens division and title on raw maybe? ideally you would have two women's titles but what the hell do you call the other title without it sounding terrible. They could/should introduce a women's tag team title though, maybe that gives some women something (those not in title contention or who are lower down the women's division).

I'm probably one of the few people who likes two world titles, gives each show legitimacy and makes them feel like actual separate promotions, so long as they don't roam like the end of the brand split (basically killed the WHC), that has to be strictly enforced. Also first champ should be legit (i think i posted my rosters and stuff and had Seth winning it first, you need a main eventer to win it first, and he's better than cena's 16th reign or reigns killing smackdown).

IC title and US should be exclusive secondary titles, one on raw and one on smackdown.

YEah the cruiserweight title should go to whichever brand doesn't have the womens title (smackdown probably along with every cruserweight wrestler since they're all doing nothing anyway).

I hope they do bring back separate PPV's or at the very least separate network specials. Also the announce team is already different mostly (Byron i'd imagine stays on Raw as the whipping boy, Corey Graves to Smackdown with Lawler and Ranello) so not much will change their.

I have a feeling the WWE World Title will stay on Raw along with IC and Tag Titles. I think before the brand split Roman Reigns will lose the title and be the face of Smackdown as the new champ there. The Women's Division and US title will move to Smackdown where they will have more opportunity and be able to main event some shows. I would like a Women's tag division but I don't see it happening. Tag Team wrestling is an art that most of the Women aren't trained for.

I would love for Smackdown to bring in Corey Graves as part of the announce team. He would do well with King and Ranello.

Amato is very well versed in women's tag wresting, she could bring some of the girls up to speed enough to make the division passable until NXT gets some actual dedicated women tag teams.

From a PPV perspective, would be cool to see them to do One Raw PPV, One Smackdown PPV and elevate the four main PPV's for both shows. Sets up a quarterly schedule and elevates SummerSlam, Survivor Series, Royal Rumble and WrestleMania.


WM in April, Raw PPV, Smackdown PPV, SummerSlam (moved up to July), Raw PPV, Smackdown PPV, Survivor Series (moved up to October), Raw PPV, Smackdown PPV, Royal Rumble, Raw PPV, Smackdown PPV.

Then just repeat the schedule.

I'd be all for that. I miss the days when the big 4 actually felt like the BIG 4. You can't tell the difference between Summerslam Payback at this point.

If they debut a new World Title for Smackdown, they should do a tournament that starts at Battleground and ends at SummerSlam.

My pick is for the finals to be Cena/Cesaro at SummerSlam with Cesaro winning. But that's just me dreaming

oh no, i got too to much love for smackdown for Reigns to end up there, please don't do that to the blue brand, would rather have Seth coming over as the main event heel, Ambrose as a main event face and Wyatt (as a tweener?) coming over as the three major main eventers as well as guys like styles, cesaro, K.O (who could be a main eventer soon) and zayn. guys who are high up the card but haven't made the jump up to main eventers yet.

Raw can keep Lesnar, Cena, Reigns and Orton to be honest, they draw with the casuals and from the sounds of it, raw will be the show for the casuals (if it stays the same).

Doesn't it make sense for Bray Wyatt to attack Cena during his return? Cena did ruin Wyatt's moment at WrestleMania
